Hi! I have been out of commission in MFP for several months and the weight I had lost (15 lbs) has all come back from depression and emotional eating. I've struggled with this weight thing since the day I graduated high school and left my parents home.

In 2006 I opted for gastric bypass surgery at 315 lbs, six months later I had lost 100 lbs. Three months after that, I was 140 lbs lighter. I hadn't felt that amazing in my entire life!!!

Shortly after my weight loss I was pregnant with my daughter and right after her birth, I was pregnant again, with my son. I lost most of my baby weight but about a year ago I just started packing on pounds again and have been struggling with this ever since.

I'm currently 200 lbs, I swear I REFUSE to go one pound over that 200 mark!! LOL!!

When I was on MFP, I found it easier to handle the day to day temptations when I had encouragement and motivation from others in my same situation. I NEED FRIENDS WHO CAN ENCOURAGE AND INSPIRE!! PLEASE!
